Getting Rid of Supplementals

    So I just discovered that I have almost as many supplemental pages as cached pages. I was wondering if anyone could help me out figure out how I could decrease these numbers. It's for my personal site - www.mrgarylee.com - I'm trying a new robots.txt file right now, but if anyone has any other suggestions, I would love to hear them! Thanks!

    You need to get more incoming links to your internal pages. A supplimental result is just one that Google don't deem to be of a high enough importance to be included in the main index.

    Also the content and mostly title should not be duplicate.

    you need a unique (or mostly unique) title and meta description for each page. that's exactly how i got one of my sites out of supps. this was without adding any additional backlinks to what i had before.

    Getting rid of supplemental result is through creating a unique quality content building a quality back links for your sub pages or index page.

    Duplicate content has nothing do do with supplimental results.

    Try using unique title tags. Most of mine are supplimented as they all start with "Noddegamra - " followed by the title of the page.

    Ignore the branging, or re-arrange it more like

    "[page title] - Noddegamra"

    the main criteria for the supplemental results is page rank. you need more backlinks to your site
